In the Days Before Rock 'N' Roll

Justin, gentler than a man I am down on my knees At the wireless knobs I am down on my knees At those wireless knobs Telefunken, Telefunken And I'm searching for Luxembourg, Luxembourg, Athlone, Budapest, AFN, Hilversum, Helvetia In the days before rock 'n' roll In the days before rock 'n' roll In the days before rock 'n' roll When we let, then we bet On Lester Piggott when we met We let the goldfish go In the days before rock 'n' roll Fats did not come in Without those wireless knobs Fats did not come in Without those wireless knobs Elvis did not come in Without those wireless knobs Nor Fats, nor Elvis Nor Sonny, nor Lightning Nor Muddy, nor John Lee In the days before rock 'n' roll In the days before rock 'n' roll When we let and we bet On Lester Piggott 10/1 And we let the goldfish go Down the stream Before rock 'n' roll We went over the wavebands We'd get Luxembourg, Luxembourg and Athlone AFM stars of Jazz Come in, come in, come in, Ray Charles Come in, the high priest In the days before rock 'n' roll In the days before rock 'n' roll When we let and we bet On Lester Piggott 10 to 1 And we let the goldfish go And then the killer came along The killer, Jerry Lee Lewis A whole lotta shakin' goin' on, Great balls of fire Little Richard Justin, gentler than a man Justin, Justin, where is Justin now? What's Justin doing now? Just, where is Justin now? Come aboard --- In the Days Before Rock 'n' Roll - Van Morrison
